House Review
Nose:
Honey, pineapple, citrus, clay, creamy. A nice blend of sweet and earthy, without a lot of ethanol or pungent character.
Taste:
Thin mouth feel, nice ethanol presence. Sweet, lightly smoky. Clay, pepper, faint charcoal. Some light citrus.
Finish:
Long, some ash, some pepper. Light mango and clay.
Overall:
Not a massive flavorful beast but very nice and a solid array of flavors. Nothing mindblowing, but nothing bad, either. A good budget option.
